Bread Matters | Original Sourdough Starter | 1 x 10g

Arrived 22/7/2023. Best before 1/7/2023

Product arrived on time- followed the insructions and lo&behold -sourdough bread-yummee. I keep half a cup of starter back (in fridge) ready to refresh for my next loaf- highly recommended

I read Andrew Whitely's book many years ago. Bread is a kind of holy calling for him. He knows what he's talking about. I have had many forays into sourdough in the past, but with little real success. This has always been my own fault, usually I forget to feed it and it dies, causing me ridiculous feelings of guilt.This gave me a lively culture in no time at all, and the smell turned me into a sourdough junkie. I keep shoving jars at people with the instruction to "Sniff that. Go on" The resulting bread is beautiful, filling the house with its fragrance. I have 3 jars of this going, mainly as insurance against one failing, one rye, two wheat, one of which has a small amount of raw honey added. I just hope I am up to the responsibility!

Followed instructions and the product didn't forth or bubble. Would not recommenced

I have been using this starter for many many years. This is only my third starter. The first I over worked and then neglected ( exams). The second, for some reason went mouldy after 4 years of hard work and this will be my third. I refresh it with organic Rye as per the instructions and then ( for me) the combo of 330g of organic wholemeal spelt with an addition of80 g or white organic spelt, ( same water as the final dough instructions) works perfectly. I love the bread so much I have given up buying artisan bread as it is not as nice as this. It produces a small load which is Rye in character but spelt in density.
